everything.
Keep the
good.
Avoid evil
whenever you notice it.''

This is a comprehensive archive of online information on (almost exclusively non-commercial) global optimization, and somewhat less comprehensive on local optimization, collected by Arnold Neumaier on the web server http://arnold-neumaier.at/glopt.html of the Computational Mathematics group at the University of Vienna, Austria. Later on this page there is a Table of Contents of this Site.
Please help to keep the archive up to date by informing me at Arnold.Neumaier@univie.ac.at about new or missing electronic documents related to public domain work on global optimization, and about links that are no longer working.
Related, but not formally part of this site are two other sites maintained by our research group in Vienna:
This archive was created on September 1, 1995); it contains more than 1000 links to sources outside our server.
I try to maintain a complete coverage of public domain algorithms on continuous global optimization; many references to combinatorial and local optimization are included for my (and your) convenience, but there I don't aim at completeness. Thanks to all who helped me by providing useful information.
Please write me to Arnold.Neumaier@univie.ac.at if your own work is not referenced, if you know some other useful link to public domain work that is missing here, or if you find any invalid links.
